News that Mo Fei had been back to the herb capital made uproar everywhere.
Mo Fei had been missing for over a year. At first, people still were calm. But, after so long, all kinds of rumors appeared.
A year after Mo Fei’s disappearance, people started to say that Mo Fei had been dead.
So when Mo Fei went back, a lot of people thought Mo Fei was a zombie, which nearly scared the sh*t of out of them.
“My disciple! Finally you are back! I missed you so so much.” Cheng Mobai grabbed Mo Fei in his arms.
Mo Fei said helplessly, “Shifu, you are strangling me.”
Cheng Mobai then let go of him, looking at him angrily, “My disciple, where have you been? Why didn’t you send back a message?”
Mo Fei shrugged his shoulders, “I’d like to, but I can’t. We accidentally fell into a strange place, and it has taken us so long to find the way back.”
Cheng Mobai looked at Mo Fei, suspiciously asking, “My disciple, you are already a heavenly class?”
Mo Fei nodded, “Yes!”
Cheng Mobai looked at Mo Fei, “Good for you! My disciple, in such a short time, you have gotten to the heavenly class!”
“Thanks to that the place we were trapped in is suitable for my cultivation.” Mo Fei said.
“Suitable for your cultivation? It should be a place where the star source force is very dense. I wish I can also be there.” said Cheng Mobai.
Mo Fei smiled dryly, “Trust me, Master, you won’t like that place.”
One should know, when they first arrived there, they nearly got killed by a four-horned monster!
Cheng Mobai looked at Mo Fei, “By the way, you’ve lost some weight!”
Mo Fei nodded and said, “Of course!” That hell-like place! Only his son could gain some weight there!
Cheng Mobai looked at Mo Fei and asked, “My disciple, any progress of the Soul-killing potion?”
Mo Fei looked at Cheng Mobai, spread his hands and said helplessly, “During the past over one year’s time, I had only been thinking how to get out of that hell like place. I had no time working on that.”
Cheng Mobai looked at Mo Fei, disappointed, “Really?”
Mo Fei nodded, “Yes!”
“It’s all right, it’s all right, now you’re back. I’m sure it won’t take long for you to develop an antidote.” Cheng Mobai said with full of confidence.
Mo Fei smiled helplessly and said, “Well, we’ll see after I go to the Stone Tablet Woods another time.”
Cheng Mobai nodded, “You are right. Grinding a chopper will not hold up the work of cutting firewood. Since you have been a heavenly class now. Maybe you’d get to the last one in the Woods.”
Mo Fei made a wry smile once, “Shifu, how would I ever have that ability?”
Cheng Mobai patted on Mo Fei’s shoulder, “You are my disciple. How could my disciple not be capable?”
Mo Fei smiled bitterly, “Shifu, you always overpraise me. Oh right, while I was away, were you all right?”
Cheng Mobai shook his head and said, “Not good.”
“Not good, why?” Mo Fei asked with a frown.
Cheng Mobai wore a bitter face, “My disciple, don’t you know those old men from the association are a bunch of as*holes?”
Mo Fei suspiciously asked, “What did they do?”
“When you were missing at first, everyone was fine. But after some time, those old men started to raise the price, like crazy! But in order to live, we had to buy potions for them. If you still canlt come back, we’ll all go bankrupt.” Said Cheng Mobai helplessly.
Mo Fei looked at Cheng Mobai, “Shifu, so you have been swindled a lot?”
Cheng Mobai made an embarrassed smile, “Your shifu I am poor. But, surname Wang got overcharged a lot. All those magic weapons he has refined were ripped off by those old bastards!”
Mo Fei wore a cold face. He had never expected this while he was away.
“Shifu, don’t worry, since I am back, your potions are all on me.” Said Mo Fei while patting his chest.
Cheng Mobai smiled, “Then I will all count on you, my disciple.”
…
“Have you heard that? Mo Fei and his group are back!” Chu Jun said.
“I thought he was dead outside, never thought he could come back alive. So disappointing.” Disdained Feng Ru.
“No one knew where that guy has been. After he came back, he is already a heavenly class master.” said Wei Pengfei with jealousy.
Tang Jin squinted his eyes, “I heard that Mo Fei brought a lot of people back.”
“Yes! That’s a very strange crowd.” Chu Jun said.
“I heard that one of them is a heavenly class master, called Gu Ru, who has been missing for hundreds of years. This time he also came back with Mo Fei.” said Feng Ru.
“It is said that they have been trapped in a secret realm and they came back from there.” said Wei Pengfei.
“Now that Mo Fei is back, our days wouldn’t be easy then.” Chu Jun said impatiently.
“It’s been more than a year. I don’t know how far Mo Fei’s potion level has reached.” Feng Ru said fearfully.
“Even if in the last over a year’s time, he hasn’t touched any potion, now he is a heavenly class star magician, his soul force should have improved a lot. Only by this, his potion arts shouldn’t be weak.” Said Wei Pengfei while shaking his head.
During that time when Mo Fei was missing, the pharmacists’ association had monopolized the potion market. Now that Mo Fei was back, and he was already a heavenly class master, so those heavenly class masters all took his side.
The Pharmacists’ Association
“Unexpectedly, Mo Fei is back again.” Feng Tianhong said darkly.
“He has been missing for so long. I thought he wouldn’t come back.” Chu Changsheng shook his head.
“Now that he is back, perhaps the weather will change.” Tang Shunfeng shook his head.
“Brother Tang, don’t grow up others’ ambition and belittle your own prestige! During the past over a year’s time, we don’t know where he has been. I guess he should have been wasted on the study of the Soul-killing potion already.” Said Feng Tianhong coldly.
“He is a heavenly class star master, forget about other things, only his soul force should have improved a lot.” Said Chu Changsheng.
“All right. We shouldn’t panic ourselves first. Just a Mo Fei.” said Wei Yanhe blandly.
Wei Pengfei sighed silently in his heart. Although he did not want to admit it, Wei Yanhe was very clear that the pressure brought to them by Mo Fei was huge.
